Abstract The ionizing radiation harnessed in electron microscopes or synchrotrons enables unique insights into nanoscale dynamics. In liquid‐phase transmission microscopy (LP‐TEM), irradiating a liquid sample with electrons offers access to real space information at an unmatched combination of temporal and spatial resolution. However, employing for imaging can alter the Gibbs free energy landscape during experiment. This is mainly due radiolysis corresponding shift chemical potential; however, experiments also be affected by irradiation‐induced charging heating. this review, state art describing beam effects summarized, theoretical experimental assessment guidelines are provided, strategies obtain quantitative under such conditions discussed. While review showcases these on LP‐TEM, concepts that discussed here applied other types used probe samples, as synchrotron X‐rays.

Dynamic Networks via Polymerizable Deep Eutectic Monomers for Uniform Li⁺ Transport at Interfaces in Lithium Metal Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Апрель 25, 2025

Abstract Solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) offer an appealing alternative to volatile and flammable organic liquid for high‐energy lithium metal batteries (LMBs). Despite their potential, two key challenges, insufficient ionic conductivity inadequate interfacial performance, continue hinder practical development. Here, the promising potential of a single‐ion conducting gel electrolyte (SIGPE) derived from polymerizable deep eutectic monomer (PDEM) is demonstrated. This structure forms dynamic nanophases with high‐dielectric‐constant dielectricizer through Li + ‐bridged molecular self‐association within flexible matrix. design regulates ion pathways enable rapid conduction, effectively preventing polarization promoting dissociation, while also exhibiting viscoelastic properties that strengthen interface stability. The resultant SIGPE exhibits high oxidation voltage 5.0 V near‐unity transference number 0.86. In LFP|SIGPE|Li full cell, formation inorganic‐rich SEI layer, driven by hetero species (Li 2 O/LiF), enables discharge capacity 131.9 mAh g −1 at 1 C stable cycling 71.9% retention 99.5% coulombic efficiency after 400 cycles 30 °C. These findings underscore PDEM‐based enhance safety, sustainability in LMBs, paving way use storage systems.

The solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer is essential for battery performance and safety due to its electron insulation Li-ion conduction. However, issues such as ongoing decomposition Li dendrite growth often arise. most common strategy improving the SEI using additives. mechanism of with additives remains unclear. In this study, we use operando electrochemical liquid cell scanning transmission microscopy (ec-LC-STEM) monitor in real time nanoscale processes at electrode-electrolyte interface during operation. We investigate how additive fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) influences formation properties SEI, well dissolution dendrites. Our study shows that FEC decomposes early, allowing nucleation LiF nanoparticles (NPs) create a dense, uniform, thin layer. Interestingly, our analysis reveals these NPs have structural defects could influence ionic electronic conductivity. real-time observations show FEC-based facilitates dense short metals, whereas FEC-free leads long whiskers thinner roots than tips. This difference their mechanism: FEC-rich electrolytes, strong contact between metal electrode ensures complete dissolution, while partial occurs, leaving behind inactive metal. These findings emphasize crucial role shaping local structure thereby regulating
